The spice islands of Zanzibar

Baraza Resort & Spa - Part 2

Bazara Resort & Spa

Upsides The hotel shop is a treat: a vast
emporium stocked with crafts from all over East Africa, from Maasai
jewellery to silk kaftans embroidered with shells. And parents will
rejoice in the well-equipped kids' club.

Downsides The sea urchins, which attach
themselves to rocks all around the island and can be avoided only
by wearing strong-soled rubber shoes while swimming; the inclusive
wine (mainly a basic South African KWV) and uninspiring food (from
pastas, salads and sandwiches for lunch to, one night, dry grilled
lobster served with a broccoli, carrot and cauliflower
kebab).www.baraza-zanzibar.com. One-bedroom villas
